#62I love windows xp. always have and still find it eaiser and more intuitive than windows 10. I encourage everyone to donate and support reactOS. It's our only hope for a sane open source OS.

#63Joke's on you; I don't need this. At work I still frequently use a winXP box to compile stuff. But, impressive and awesome :)
I can somewhat understand having to compile for XP (it's been 20 years but... legacy, I get it). However compiling on XP must be hell. Do you mind me asking what you do that requires this?
I think a lot of embedded stuff still orbits around XP.

#64Not quite Win2k in the browser [0] but it's a pretty good simulation of Windows. Sounds like this would be a fun project for trying out new frameworks. It's missing one feature that's been in Windows since 1.0: closing an application by clicking the top left (icon) in the task bar. [0]: https://bellard.org/jslinux/vm.html?url=win2k.cfg&mem=192&gr...
Finally a way to play the real solitaire!

#65Very sad MSN Messenger did not open. This was still a hell of a nostalgia trip for me.
He could map it to a Jabber client. Or IRC.

#67“Your computer might be at risk” That extra detail made it very realistic.
For me, it was the fading to grey when you hit "Shutdown"

#68Winamp!! Wow, talk about nostalgia... this is really cool. I just realized thankfully we don't really need to test websites against IE6+ anymore but if we did and the browser worked, this would be really useful! nice work.
